Folks:
I am retired from the telephone company and was a switching equipment engineer for many years. I'm here to say that the telephone company CAN stop these calls with a bit of simple programming - but it costs them money to do so and what's in it for them? (Fewer long distance call fees, lost manhours on something that actually REDUCES their revenues, etc). Get the picture? YUP - the telephone companies actually BENEFIT at your misery. I hope you'll remember this:
1. When you decide WHICH communications company to do business with
2. When you vote (as in - there should be a law against this 'mis-treatment' shouldn't there)?
3. When you PAY your communications bills - maybe you should 'with-hold' funds for mis-treatment
4. Why Americans pay the HIGHEST broadband FEES for service anywhere in the world!
Needless to say - YOU DESERVE BETTER SERVICE than that which you are getting. Call (or better yet - WRITE) your telephone company about your complaints. They have THOUSANDS of highly paid executive officers just waiting to respond to your comments!
